Lot #54. Château de Beaucastel Châteauneuf-du-Pape Hommage à Jacques Perrin 2000

Description: Consists of 2 Magnums, 1.5L
Score: 99 RP.
The 2000 possesses an impenetrable black/purple color as well as a sumptuous bouquet of melted licorice, creosote, new saddle leather, blackberry and cherry fruit as well as roasted meats. Sweet and full-bodied, with great intensity, huge power, and a finish that lasts for 67 seconds by my watch, this is an amazing tour de force in winemaking. Even in a flattering, forward-styled vintage such as 2000, it will need 7-8 years of cellaring, yet this is the most accessible Jacques Perrin I have tasted. Anticipated maturity: 2010-2040. Wine Advocate, Dec 2002
Provenance: The Tower Cellar
Notes: 2cm or better, lightly stained capsules, 1 wine stained vintage neck tag, 1 lightly torn and 1 wine stained label, 1 sign of past seepage.
